Awaiting shipment!: ROUND 5!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

Hey guys here is the fifth round :beer: :beer:. I asked you in the feeler thread how you would feel about another GB. The replies were very positive and drove me to start round five! We have some new products and new prices, which are awesome! Some are waterproof hosts. And PL lasers with modes!

Also the 520 laser are reasonably priced! We have a lot more to choose from this round.

Last GB went very well! We had 0 complaints because of failure of the product. Like every GB I put Kevin to heart he must do a good QC on the lasers. He is going to have a bad time with me if he does not

NOTE: German orders can ship through me (Netherlands) first if desired at extra cost. Packages will be shipped by either DHL or FEDEX.

Then the defective orders or orders with problems: (Kevin on mail)

If someone’s laser is defective and he can prove that, we will replace that laser for free, no problem including postal mail cost and new laser. We can sign the contract.

Now if you receive a defective unit you will need to make a video about it and I send it to kevin. Then you ship the laser to kevin. If he confirmes the problem you get your shipping and a replacement back.

Customers who buy Portable and handheld laser < 500mW,and laser pen < 5mW
We will write handheld laser with our FDA accession number in the shipping invoice,
we can send handheld laser < 500mW(our IIIb FDA accession number ),
and laser pen < 5mW (our IIIa FDA accession number ),to US markets, no problem,
*
We are responsible for all lasers, occasionally held by US customs, refund or resend.

Batteries are not possible due to shipping agencies. Group buys always have a goal. For this one I am just going to set a closing date. Depending on where we are by then I will decide if it is enough to make it happen. We all know that this is not going to work for three orders. We would need more.

All payments will be done through PayPal. Note for new members, members with a rep lower than 20 will need to send their payment via “gift” why? To protect myself from scammers of whom order a laser receive it and claim their money back. I just don’t want to get into that stuff since I put a lot of my free time into this and I am not getting payed for it by skylaser! I would cry If I made a loss out of my own pocket here. Notice that on the cheaper lasers there is a smaller discount this is due to lower profit margins. So bigger discounts are not applicable.

With the last GB most of the vets also made their payment as a gift. This is highly appreciated because the remainings will be donated to the forum. In round two we got a 322$ donation. That was the biggest order in skylaser GB history.

How it works: Collect orders till closing date -> taking payment (three days to pay)-> Sending order to kevin -> Distribute tracking numbers -> Handling after sales with you and kevin

Now for the actual lasers in this GB (ex. shipping) All specifications can be found in the link behind the offered lasers :san:

extra gifts for 300+ USD orders:
a pointer mount(or a handheld mount) + a diving LED flashlight

extra gifts for 500+ USD orders:
LFP445H- 1000mW OR HL445- 1000mW D50M

Thanks all! :friend:

NOTE: I am very busy at the moment as i have a full time job. However I will take orders and answer questions as often as possible. Please try to limit the ammount of changes to your order as it is very time consuming to change the order each time!

Re: OPEN: ROUND 5!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

I may be in for a 1W 660nm. I am moving now, so once that's all settled, I will know more.

Re: OPEN: ROUND 5!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

I am definitely interested in a few of the lasers on the list, I just need to do some research first before I commit.

Re: OPEN: ROUND 5!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

I need a bunch of the grating caps. Mine are broken. Need to know th e thread count and diameter though

Re: OPEN: ROUND 5!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

so you can decide anytime until 31-08 then or will it close if all decided before ?

The diffraction grating caps are ment for the HL laser. If you have another laser then the HL chances are very slim it will work.

Normally it gets decided before that. The fast we get more orders the faster we can say it is a definite go!

Greetings!

Re: OPEN: ROUND 5!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

Another question sorry, how are the orders shipped with Fedex or ? i hope not DHL i hate them worst shipping company ever

Re: OPEN: ROUND 5!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

No problem. Normally kevin chooses one of the two by selecting the best chance of arrival for a certain destination.

But if you insist i could ad a note that you specifically want one shipping agency.

Greetings!

Re: OPEN: ROUND 5!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

any chance we can buy bare diodes?

Wel yes, bit as far as i know dtr is cheaper concerning diodes.

Re: OPEN: ROUND 5!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

Just a quick question before I finalize what I would like to get.

Is this a typo?
HL460- 100mW OSRAM (single mode) pointer website price $75.44 Offroads GB price $65

The information in question is the HL460. When I click on the link it goes to a 450nm. I just want some clarification. Is this for a 460nm or a 450nm?

My order may change pending the answer to the aforementioned question, however the following is my tentative order.

130mW 635nM website price $57.40 Offroads GB price $47
PL520- 150mW website price $172.20 Offroads GB price $139
HL808- 1000mW website price $93.48 Offroads GB price $76

Thanks.

Its 450. LaserBTB doesn't seem to keen on changing that on their site, its been like that for a while....

Re: OPEN: ROUND 5!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

460 would be sweet. Alas.

Re: OPEN: ROUND 5!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

Stupid typos! Oh well. This is my final request.

Hey! Thanks for you order! I will put it in post #2! :beer:

About the single mode osram. I believe they used to have 460 on their site but the actual wavelength is 450nm. According to DTR his webshop. So for now i changed the type in 450.

I believe we discussed this in earlier GB's aswell. Only i can not remember what the exact issue was

Greetings :beer:

EDIT: i have reviews coming up for a waterproof 1W 445. And the 1W 445 with modes. I jist need to find wifi to upload my videos to youtube and then i can post the thread (currently on my holiday adress and my cellphones internet is limited to 2gb a month).
